What will be the first car-track combo you drive in Project Cars?

[amazed]

Mk1 Escort or Caterham at Brands (unless BTCC Cavalier turns up *wishful thinking*)

 

[JR98]

Either

BMW 1M @ Brands Hatch or
Audi R8 LMS Ultra at Spa

 

[Peasantslayer]

Formula A at Catalunya ever since seeing this.

 

[Bealdor]

I've absolutely no idea, I'm hoping it has a randomiser and chooses for me

Nope, randomizer isn't in. The first chosen combo is a community created LMP1 car@Dubai International.
Great car, great track!

Formula A at Catalunya ever since seeing this.

Oh yes this is a great combo, been there multiple times! But remember, this video is almost 2 years old, so a lot has changed since then (and it hasn't got worse )

..and 30mins to complete a lap.

See told you, you would laugh. A lap should take about 12 minutes or so, maybe less because of how a cart will be able to corner without to much braking. I think the bumps will slow down a cart more than the corners. But this will be a great test of the physics of the game.

A 250cc Superkart is faster on short to medium length tracks than most race cars. The problem on the Nords is the bumpiness of the track, the unforgiving curbs and the longer straights where the Superkart will lack some top speed. If you can keep it on the track, I'd say a lap time around 7:00 would be feasible. Here you can see a Superkart lapping the Nurburgring Sprint Circuit in around 1:28 or so.



Speaking of karts, reminds me of this hybrid kart I drove in GT5 and my plea for shifter karts in GT6, which I take full credit for of course. My first every Youtube video, shot from my phone

I'd like to go back to the Nurburgring to blast around it again one day as I never really noticed all this bumpiness people keep going on about when I went there. Yeah sure, it's got a few more bumps than say Silverstone but the reality is it's like driving on a smooth carpet.

 

[Bethany Dawn]

I wonder if you will be able to change the gearing on the carts? Put on a lower toothed sprocket on the rear axel, higher toothed sprocket on the clutch, or a larger diameter tire. All would give the kart a higher top speed.

 

[DrJustice]

^ Both karts are shifter karts and you can tinker with the box as well as the final drive.

 

[JohnScoonsBeard]

Another echo for Escort Mark I and Brands Hatch.

 

[SVT Cobra GT]

Zakspeed Capri at Spa then Silverstone.

 

[GTracer38]

A random GT3 car at Imola or Brno.

 

[PRO_TOO]

As i practiced a lot at monza (gt5) these days, I think I might drive a "normal" car around that track at first. Just to get a good comparison.

 

[mattersend]

Lotus 98T on the california highway at sunset mixture of speed and cruising.

 

[wvmgmidget]

Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster on California Highway at sunset (sorry to copy you mattersend).

 

[HammyMansell]

The BMW M3 DTM!! I'm gonna give it a good thrashing round Oulton Park!!

Its all gooood

 

[bleeder]

I'm starting to drift towards a Proto car like the Radical or Palmer Jag around Imola, then go back and drive around every single track in alphabetical order in any random car.

and that's just the first night!

 

[dipsetab]

BMW M3 GT on azure coast with rain and thunder

 

[fortbo]

Audi R18 at Circuit de la Sarthe.

 

[HammyMansell]

Although now watching this BMW M1 Procar it'll be this!!!! What a noise this monster makes!!!

 

[bleeder]

I think I'll take that car out first as well. probably ether Imola or Nurburgring GP

 

[PRO_TOO]

As I learn, what's that kind of shifter he is using?! It's not a paddle, it's not h-pattern... Tell/teach me please.

 

[DrJustice]

It's a 5 speed manual dog leg box. Dog leg meaning that 1st gear is left and back, so it's "1 gear off" compared to a normal H-pattern (wiki).

 

[Trux]

My first car/track way back was the Asano now Audi R18 at Bologna, now Imola.
My first car and track of today however was the Ginetta Junior at Brands Indy
Followed by a career race in the Junior at Oulton Park.
So much win
